Quoting Ron L. Mitchell
So, no vig but we need a base plate, correct? Most of the CS bases I had at least had a base plate, like the crater plate or something...

You can use a baseplate, like most space bases (even raised if you wish, or 2 hinged together), but it's not a requirement. Most recent playsets don't use one, so if you prefer a setup similar to the Sentai Fortress and such, feel free to do it.Permalink
